The beauty of the small village Rakalj made us immediately feel at home. Branko has set us the house keys and the house is just great. Both outside and inside perfectly. Wheelchair it's quite good, but the terrain is uneven and there are steps that can be overcome only by small ramps (the pool to the house).

urs2015-08-08T00:00:00Z

We had a very relaxed time in the appartment. The garden with the pool and BBQ was amazing and Branko gave us very good recommendations for restaurants and beaches. Everything was just as described and we felt very comfortable!

Daniel2015-06-25T00:00:00Z

If you are looking for some peace and quiet, beautiful surroundings, lots and lots of hiking opportunities, a nice and clean little house with a fire place and some real Croatian hospitality; this is your spot. Mij sister and I spent a week here in the dead of winter and it was just wonderful! We came by car and arrived around 5 or 6 in the afternoon. We were given a very warm welcome by Branko and his wife and we felt at home immediately. They explained the working of the fireplace, showed us around and told us a little about all the things we could do and places to visit. The house is in Rakalj, a sleepy village near the east coast of Istria. A hike to sea probably takes a half hour up until an hour and a half, depending on which trail you pick. The trails are pretty easy (bring some good shoes though) and the coast and surroundings are just beautiful! You can do a lot of exploring. There is a small pub in the village where you can drink real nice honey liquer (I think it's a Croatian specialty) and sit near the fire place and there is also a little supermarket in Rakalj which is about a 5 minute walk away. We made a lot of nice trips by car to several towns along the west coast. We also visited the beautiful island Cres. There's a ferry for Cres leaving from Brestova every hour or so. Getting to Brestova by car takes a small hour and the route is very scenic. Bring your car to Cres and visit the towns Beli and Cres. A beautiful daytrip! The week was all I expected and more: Istria really took my breath away. If you are not into skiing but like to get away in winter, I really recommend spending a few days or a week here. There's not a lot of tourism going on in winter, so it kinda feels like the whole of Istria is yours :-) Going here in summer is probably wonderful as well though: you still have the peace and quiet, but the more touristic area's are just a little drive away. The pool is wonderful if you have kids and if this house is a little small for your liking: Branko and his wife also rent out a bigger house. You can even rent both if you're a group. Branko and his wife are really really nice people and gave our week the extra spark. They invited us to our home in Pula so we visited them our last evening before leaving. We had a wonderful evening and we talked about a lot of different things. They're just really sweet, warm and wise people and they made sure we had everything we needed this week.

Myrte2015-01-03T00:00:00Z

After a somewhat turbulent arrival Brancos woman Armida has received in Rakalj us. She was very helpful and organized the repair of geplatzen rear tire. The apartment is really nice, ideal for two people, fully equipped and lacks nothing. There is also a wood stove available, which can be as we made use, in operation, when it is too cold times. Only criticism, the double bed was something wrong (3cm) which I then provisionally with the spirit level and a kl. Board brought in the balance ... I think this is certainly Branco fix .. The environment is very quiet, ideal if you're looking tranquility as we are. The small village Rakalj has a kl. Shop where everything most necessary place (a tip, try the open white wine, he is very good and very reasonably priced) .. Nearby (3-8km.) Are a couple of taverns where you can eat very well, Konoba Turist Podol I can recommend, there you have cooked specially special local dishes just for us! Unfortunately the weather for our cycling was not optimal, so we broke our vacation two days earlier ....

Ulrich2016-05-17T00:00:00Z

Everything was perfect and we felt very "at home" in Brankos house. He was good host and helped us with good advices, so everything was great!

Gregor2016-05-25T00:00:00Z

It was a very nice stay at this apartment, can't say otherwise. The owner was so friendly to pick us up from Pula and gave us some good advice on things. The house is good, full of convenient stuff that you would not even expect to be in such an apartment. But the best part is the garden and the pool! Can highly recommend this place.

Marianne2016-06-04T00:00:00Z

It was a very nice time in Rakalj. We felt very comfortable. Branko is a very friendly host. The cottage is very charming, the garden created very loving, you're in the middle of the Istrian nature idyll. It was a lovely break in Rakalj. We will be back.

The old Baker's house is a traditional stone built house in the center of the well known village Rakalj. It is the place where you find Istrian tradition, people welcome and beautiful nature in one place.
The house was renovated in 2015.

The old Baker's house was built just by the old stone oven that was used for more than 300 years to bake traditional bread in this part of the village. The bread is still baked today as we have renovated the two ovens in 2013.

Humble and friendly people willing to help you at any time.

Loved! A sweet little stone Istrian house that has been updated & is very comfortable. Warm traditional charm but with a bit of minimalist modern chic. Everything is new & comfortable. Comfortable bed, nice little deck, fireplace, parking, brand new bathroom, equipped kitchen, in a sweet neighborhood surrounded by other charming well maintained historic stone homes & pristine gardens. Every way you look is a charming vista. The sea is not far [5 min drive or bike ride], just down the road. Rakalj is in a tiny little village with friendly people [we were here during the off season so not much open but there is a store & cafe + more in typical season]. There is a goat farm, very close to Pula [don't miss the aquarium/sea turtle rescue centar if you have kids..or not], Labin has a very nice Velo Cafe for dinner & breakfast, nice sandy beach in Medulin,... lots to explore from this quiet comfortable location. My kid found hedgehogs at night & Josip taught us to hunt wild asparagus! He has lots of resources & is associated with mountain biking tours, sea kayaking, truffle/mushroom hunting, etc. Book it! You won't be sorry. This is a great stay & wonderful host with great resources. You won't want to leave!

sarah2017-04-09T00:00:00Z

Josip and his sister were very good hosts. The house is beautiful and Rakalj a very quiet place, everything was as described. I would suggest to stay here to a friend.

stefano2015-08-19T00:00:00Z

We visit the place with my boyfriend for nice, preferable quiet stay. all we wanted was nice place to stay with nice quiet beach close by... we found amazing beach after not long walk down and place was more than great with its own atmosphere... the two lovely cities near by was great option for day trip and the close restaurants and goat farm was just right things to do... we had lovely time and we highly recommend

Sona2017-07-17T00:00:00Z

Josip was a storybook host! He has personally tried every request and even far beyond. There were no wishes open! The building has impressive charm and is close to a supermarket. The problem with the heat on the upper floor of the hosts will have resolved until next year, at night it was, however, pleasantly - simply noted that Josip has a lot of plans and constantly striving his accommodation must be further developed. The area offers something for everyone and for us personally it was the perfect base for exploring the southeast of Istria. Great experience, great accommodation, great host - thoroughly recommended! Thanks Josip and all the best !!!

Christina2016-08-02T00:00:00Z

Very romantic place to stay for a couple. Communication easy and clear. House was clean and just enough equipped. The village is picturesque with splendid walks around in fields and meadows. The neighbors live literally few meters distant so do not expect any privacy around the house or on the terrace. Make sure to include a mosquito protection in your luggage. (July)

Michaela2017-07-06T00:00:00Z

The house is great and is fully equipped: kitchen, screens for mosquitoes, bedroom, balcony and great bathroom. Nearby there are many options for eating, but for a few days serves. Josip was a great host, always helpful and polite! Thank you for the stay :)

Very nice place, house located in small village was very clean and roomy. Host was superb from the beginning. The fridge was stocked with wine, water and beer! Overall we had excellent stay here and we would love to come back. Thank you Ana :)

Igor2016-08-01T00:00:00Z

The place where the house is a small village about 4 km away from the beach, you can go safely on foot but it is recommended to use the machine. The gravel beach is tiny, but it is ideal for those who seek peace and a clean and clear sea. The house is beautiful and gives us a look into the past of the Croatian people, but with a modern character. The highly recommend it to those looking for relaxation and peace. There being little light pollution, the night you see so many stars and thus also the Milky Way. There were problems with the washing machine and there were unclean spaces, but the serenity of the place will make you forget any problems. I want to thank Ana and her brother for the way they welcomed us into the house, they were very kind and helpful. All the best !!!

This beautiful house fit confortably 4 adults plus there is a sofa bed for 2 extra persons.

Highly Recommended All those who like it cozy and comfortable, the rural idyll are looking for and mobile, I can absolutely recommend the apartment. Leonardo and his family have spared no effort to conjure up a very cozy holiday paradise from a house over 100 years old. Above average well equipped, missing out on nothing. It is thought of everything, TV, radio, who likes PS4, darts, table football, etc .. The kitchen equipment is very good and we like grilled, can light the grill on the terrace. Even a washing machine is not missing. Rakalj is a small ancient place where the tooth of time has sawn heavily. Bathing places are difficult to reach on foot, it is better if one is mobile, but here is best with Bodenfreiheit. Rakalj is ideal for exploring the area, whether it is the touristic west coast of Istria, or the more natural east coast. In town there is nothing but two pubs. All in all, we spent lovely days in Istria. Thank you Leonardo and family

First mentioned in 1190th, Rakalj was once known for its traditional Istrian pottery, a tradition now revived for tourism purposes. It was also known for its skilled sailors and fishermen. Rakalj is also attractive to visitors due to its cultural and historical sights (the Baroque parish church built in the 18th century, the Rakalj castle ruins) as well as the ethnographic collection situated in the native home of scholar and writer Mijo Mirkovic (Mate Balota). Stari Rakalj (Old Rakalj), is located closer to the sea on a small hill along the Raška bay. Next to the ruins of the Old Rakalj is the church of St. Agnes from the year 1495. The location and its surroundings is rich in flora and fauna, and as such is suitable for rural tourism, hunting and hiking. Rakalj offers beautiful a countryside, the sea, the sun and the quiet away from the crowded seaside resorts. Many beautiful beaches (located 3 km away) are hidden from view, providing a sense of freedom and intimacy. You can enjoy the delicacies of the Istria region in the restaurant "Sveti Mikula”.

Franko and his wife were very committed and very good contact. Thank you for all !!!

Branko was a great host. He really cares about his guests warmly. The hotel was perhaps a little too tight for two families. Especially the bathroom is somewhat small in size, has the holiday fun but not tarnished because the pool also a shower was available. Overall, the system has but really charming and we felt very comfortable.

Johannes2015-08-02T00:00:00Z

Nice location in a small Istrian town that allows you to experience a true Istrian atmosphere. Few very nice small beaches close by, and even one with walking distance. The swimming pool is excellent and the hosts are nice and welcoming.

Arney2016-06-19T00:00:00Z

We had two great weeks at the Villa Vickowi, the house is lovely and the pool is just great for kids. The village and area around is quiet and you need to drive to get to the nicer beaches. Brando is a very nice host who welcomed us very warmly and responded to our problems very quickly. Just be aware that there are loads of quite aggressive mosquitos, so bring some repellant to enjoy the evening hours.

Stefanie2016-08-21T00:00:00Z

Branko and Ida were very welcoming and efficient hosts who both speak very good English. We exchanged emails before arrival to finalise arrangements. Branko did all he could to sort out the problem with the clarity of the pool water on our arrival and this was fixed before the end of our week. The wi-fi connection was not working in the main house but there was a slow signal near the pool from the smaller house leading to something of a holiday wi-fi 'detox' for us. The house was immaculate with a particularly well equipped kitchen and measures in place to keep mosquitos out with screens at the windows and plug in repellants supplied. The beds were very comfortable. Great rural location combining a traditional rustic house with mod cons and a pool.

Angela2016-08-07T00:00:00Z

We stayed with 5 people a very relaxing week in the House. The keys worked perfectly unkompliziert.Branko was very friendly here at our arrival. The house is situated on the edge of the village. It has a magnificent view of the hilly landscape. Those seeking peace, relaxing walks and nature is right at home here. In the small grocery store all daily necessities can be purchased. For families traveling together, it is ideal to rent both houses. We would come back definitely.

Tatjana2015-10-19T00:00:00Z

We spent a lovely, relaxing week in Branko's house and the kids absolutely adored the pool. They also made friends with the children from the neighbouring house, which added to their excitement. Branco's house and especially the outdoor area, is scenic, and the village peaceful. The kitchen is well equipped, so it was easy to cook for the family on nights we decided to eat in. Istria is full of places to explore and we found the food to be of much higher quality than in Dalmatia, especially in the inland. Branko left a good, self-composed guide for visitors with detailed descriptions and recommendations for places to visit, restaurants etc. This was very valuable. The few things we missed were WiFi (not working during our stay), lights by the pool (not working during our stay, which meant the whole outdoor area was practically dark in the evening and difficult to enjoy), a little bit of shade on the terrace/area around the house or more than one parasol around the shares pool (considering the extremely strong Istrian sun). All in all, a very enjoyable holiday for the entire family!

Mariam2016-07-17T00:00:00Z

We enjoyed our stay in Istria. Branko and Ida are really nice people. They gave us very good advice and were looking for tje best for us. For example: when arriving, they offered us their apartment in Pula instead of Rakalj (which we had booked), because of the bad weather in Rakalj. This proved to be a good move; we enjoyed the good weather in Pula. The house in Pula was good. Near to the water. We have no experience with the house in Rakalj, but from the outside it looked very nice.

Vedran, thank you very much for your hospitality! Everything was great! Vedran met us with his family !!! Was very pleased to enter into this "fabulous" house where Vedran cooked us a surprise two bottles of wine and a bottle of grappa !!! The house itself is much more comfortable than in the pictures !!! Located in a quiet place where very nice rest from the bustle of cities !!! Any question with Vedran can be solved very easily, I would say more than was asked for the possibility to organize a guitar on arrival were shocked that there was a new guitar Vedran bought especially for us !!!! Following the road with Zagbeba immediately flooded the sauna and pool ... !!!! Our second night in Istria, we spent with Vedran, where he told us what, where and how we should try, and that it is not necessary, where to go and what to see ..... writing and armed with four leaf navigator for 8 days stay Istria and thanks to the advice we received Vedran great pleasure and I think that will definitely be back !!! Thank you very much and best regards Vedran whole family !!!!!

Very nice and tidy house. Friendly and helpful hosts will give you hints on where to go what to do in Istria. If you want to dine outside there are some nice restaurants within 5-20 mins drive if you want to cook yourself you have fully equipped kitchen and a large gas&coal barbecue. Shade in the garden cast by the fig tree is a huge advantage on sunny days (i.e. everyday :)) and when you have childres they can sit on the grass underneath. Thanks Martina & Vedran you made our holidays very enjoyable!

Piotr2017-08-11T00:00:00Z

We enjoy being at Zedran's house, the ratio price vs quality is excellent, the house is really comfortable and spacious, every bedroom has his own bathroom, it is clean and has all the equipment both inside and outside with the swimming pool, external tables and bbq. Vedran and his wife are very welcoming and attentive. In addition to the wine bottles at our arrival, they brought us milk and donuts for the kids the 1st morning knowing we had traveled before without having time to go to the supermarket.... The house is well located at 5 min from a stone beach and a good fish restaurant on the port, as well as 15min from Labin in an area very quiet and not busy with people or neighbors. A great place to rest and spend time with family.

Karine2015-08-01T00:00:00Z

It was a great holiday! We went to 8 people (all between 26 and 30) for the first time to Croatia. The house was very clean at our arrival. The rooms and the house were all very spacious. The house owner lives dâneben, But this is garkein problem, quite the opposite. He often helped us and recommended the area around the company. We recommend the apartment to any future traveler!

From the end of May to the beginning of June we spent our holidays at Villa Palazzina. We did everything exactly as it was described. The house we found as very clean and well maintained. Moreover, the house is very well equipped with kitchen utensils, a spacious refrigerator and plenty of storage space. The environment is beautiful and quiet. The next beach is within walking distance about 20 minutes away - by the quiet and rather remote location to the next city, but you need a car. Vedran and Maria were the perfect landlords. They were from the beginning very friendly and helpful. Vedran took a lot of time to inform us about the next cities, gave us some restaurant tips as well as many more tips on good wine and beautiful beaches. A highlight for hobby cooks is the freshly caught fish as well as the variety of wild herbs that he showed us during a walk. The two were very attentive and attentive and have enriched our stay. As cordially as they have received us, they have also sent us good-bye. We thank you very much and hope that you will continue to have many guests! Best greetings from Germany :)

It was not our first experience in Istria, but the first one with Josip. He is the type of host you dream of: always available, polite, smiling, suggesting activities and helpful in everything. His Sailor's house is clean, well equipped and in a very good location. It was just perfect for our four-member family. We will definitely recommend it, as we already think about going back there some day.

We spent a month in this small house Rakalj on the Istrian coast. The place is quiet and the sea is accessible by foot and by car ... The house is lovely with its olive garden and terrace, we took full advantage of the outdoors. Evenings are a little cool in March but the fireplace was a real plus in the evening. The location is not very central but there is a lot of walk to do in the vicinity and the cities of the west side of Istria are only a 30 minute drive. We were able to tour the main sites of the peninsula without worries.

We had wonderful days in Branka's house! It is equipped lovingly and practical at the same time, includes everything you need as a family for a relaxed holiday period. The various seating areas allow you to enjoy the day they will rise particularly. In the town itself little is going on, the beach is varied and the region in general very nice! We will be back!

We enjoyed the stay in Brankas house that we could use, including a large garden completely alone. Everything was very clean and tidy, the kitchenette was very well equipped, plenty of seating in the house, terrace and garden. Barbecue, deck chairs, umbrellas, WiFi, TV, badminton, table games, garden hose - everything there, what you need for summer days and evenings. The place is small and quiet, has a supermarket and one is fast on the beach, or for example in Pula. The hosts were simple and nice. We have seen them only to receive. All in all very recommendable. We would definitely come back.
